When I was using drugs, I knew deep down that I was a good guy, but I might have been the only one at the time. I used to sit in my house and get high and look at my phone and wonder why no one ever called me. Besides my mom and once in awhile my sister the phone just didn't ring. It was always me who had to make an outgoing call, and sometimes the person that I called never even called back. You see, no one wants to be around someone who's doing drugs, especially when they have lots of potential, people just get fed up. That's what happened to me. So I guess the question was should I even have a phone, because what good was it. We all know that in today's day and age your phone is used for much more than just a phone call. But I could have done all that on my laptop, LOL. I guess this song has a serious tone to it as well as a quirky or comedic side. But there's nothing funny about sitting home alone doing drugs. It's a very sad existence, you're not living life at all. Above all you know it's not right, and the times you just wonder if you'll ever get out of that situation. You always thought you were a first-rate guy, but when you're doing drugs you're nowhere near first rate and maybe not even second rate.
